Chapter 153: Acting Studies
In the next time, Watson waited for Eric's information in addition to recuperating from the injury, although the injury was not light but not serious, and after a week or so, he felt that his body had almost recovered. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Eric's message finally appeared in the mailbox in front of Watson's house on Friday morning, calling Marlena and the others to his home, ready to discuss how to make trouble for the people of the Demon Alliance.
Everyone has been recuperating at home these days, and now everyone is in good shape except for the scars and marks on Benjamin's face.
The information in the envelope is not very detailed, and it is a bit rough and vague to read, but it also proves the authenticity of this information, and Eric has indeed worked on it, because although the Hidden Snake Church and the Demon Alliance are both underground forces, and the news network between them is intertwined, but the two forces are indeed in a hostile state, so it is not so easy to know each other's recent activities.
Basically, the Demon Alliance plans to kidnap a person, but it seems that their target is no longer a talented person but a famous singer.
Scarlett, a female singer born in Erien, is now known in most of the neighborhood, has a large crowd of fans and admirers, and there are many posters about her on the shopping street where Watson's residence is located, and what the Demon Alliance wants to do is to kidnap this woman, but the purpose is not known for the time being.
"Maybe it's to extort a lot of money from her family, this is something that the underground forces like to do very much, and they also need funds for activities, don't they? ”
Now it seems that there is only one reasonable reason, after all, although singing well is also a talent, it has not reached the level pursued by those demon contractors.
"There's a bit of a lack of information, we don't have any research on singers and the like, and I don't even know where people live. ”
Locke, who was sitting on the sofa on the left, was holding a half-bitten apple in his hand, and he preferred to go about his own practice and complete the commissions he received rather than following these singers or politicians and the like.
"Isn't a big pop star like this supposed to be running around all day? We don't know when those demon contractors will do it, we can't find Scarlett and run around with her, not to mention whether she's willing to let us follow, we don't have that much time for such things." ”
Viola, who was handing out milk tea to everyone on a plate, said that she had heard Watson's introduction when she was preparing milk tea in the kitchen just now.
"I don't think I need to ask her, I found a flyer in the entrance of my house today, it was stuffed in through the crack in the door, and it was the promotion of this singer's recent activities, didn't you get stuffed in here?"
"I was a little impressed by the fact that when Watson asked me to clean up this morning, I seemed to see it...... Wait, I'll get the brown bread. ”
Putting the prepared pastries on the wooden table, Viola tilted her head and thought for a moment, then pulled the flyer out of her back like a trick.
The front of the flyer is a full-length photo of a beautiful woman, dressed quite edgy, and the pose is also very sultry, with her signature below, and the strokes are flying, Watson can't see it clearly anyway, and turning to the back is her recent event in Iryan.
Concert, this term is not unfamiliar to Watson, this is one of the main sources of money for those singers in the previous life, tickets, fame will get an explosive boost through this kind of activity, and this form naturally exists on this continent.
No matter what world it is, the entertainment industry as an indispensable part of people's lives has never declined, not to mention Watson's various entertainment methods in the world with extremely wide coverage, even in this world, the development of the entertainment industry has been very mature.
Just like those entertainment companies in the previous life, there are many organizations in this world that specialize in entertainment activities, and these organizations are naturally not established by people without any power base, but are funded by the nobles of various regions, and use the power of the family to support and protect the development of these organizations.
In the long development of such organizations, because of their performance form, they have received a generally accepted title ----- song and dance troupes, of course, in order to make it easier to distinguish, these song and dance troupes will have their own name prefix.
It is usually prefixed with the name of the region it was founded on, and there will also be a song and dance troupe named after a nobleman, such as Watson, who now sees the name Scarlett on the flyer, and the song and dance troupe under the name is prefixed by the Iryan Flanders family.
Many people may think that these song and dance troupes are just a tool used by some nobles to accumulate wealth, but in fact they are only part of the story, and they can bring more than that.
First of all, the aristocrats used these song and dance troupes to win over the people in their own regions, increase their family's control over the territory, that is, improve the people's sense of identity with their family, such as Scarlett, as a famous singer, many of her songs praise the Flender family.
Don't underestimate this sense of identity, which will be a very important part of the defense when there is an invasion, because if the people have a great affection for the lord who rules them, they will naturally try to help them defend against foreign enemies.
On the contrary, when the people of a region have already been complained, even if there are usually the army of the nobility and a large number of professionals trained by the nobility to suppress them so that they dare not speak out, once the war breaks out, the army and professionals of the nobility can no longer take care of other things, and if the people start to make trouble, then the situation will be very unfavorable to the aristocratic forces in charge of the region.
You must know that there are a large number of professionals among the civilians, and they have lived in this area for so long, so they don't know too much about the situation in this area, such as the granary, a large warehouse is not something that can be hidden, and if the assault force of the hostile forces destroys the granary or any other important building under the leadership of these people, the consequences will naturally be unimaginable.
In addition, these song and dance troupes can also be used as a way for the nobles to publicize their own legal provisions, compared to those on the roadside billboards, the public is obviously more concerned about the song and dance troupe, this kind of propaganda also has a great advantage is that it can reduce the resistance of the people to a large extent, after all, it is not easy to get angry when watching the eye-catching beauties or handsome guys on the stage dancing heart-warming dances.
Another advantage is that these song and dance troupes perform in regions all over the continent, and those who have great fame have a large number of fans, so it can be said that the influence of admirers in this world can be more than just giving gifts.
Ordinary people are nothing but professionals are also people, they also need entertainment, in case they really like a certain song and dance troupe, then it is not impossible for these idle professionals to join its forces in order to be able to often follow the song and dance troupe, even if they don't join, these powerful singer fans will spare no effort to protect their favorite idols.
Love the house and Wu, these professionals will naturally have a lot of good feelings about the forces that established this song and dance troupe because they like the song and dance troupe.
Don't think this is a very ridiculous thing, you must know that sometimes people are very blind animals, although most of the high-level professionals are tenacious in the eyes of ordinary people, but they are still people and not machines, so in the boring practice or rest time after the battle, it is really normal to like to watch the performances of those song and dance troupes, even Watson, who can be regarded as a person who does not pay any attention to singers, likes to listen to some songs in his spare time to relax himself,
Like is like, a powerful professional fell in love with a very well-known beautiful singer, what kind of shocking things did for her, such a story has already appeared I don't know how many times, men conquer the world through strength, and women conquer the world by conquering men.
On the other hand, these powerful professional fans are equivalent to a large number of potential allies for the power to establish a song and dance troupe!
This kind of network resources is what all the big forces spare no effort to manage, and under normal circumstances, they don't know how many gifts they have to give to take care of their professionals, and now they only need to let a singer in their song and dance troupe go to talk to him to get it and they don't need to pay anything, why not do such a good thing?
And Scarlett, the singer's concert this time, was held in Irion Central, and the specific location Watson had been to before, that is, the central square of Central where Iryan's Great Library was located, and this was probably part of the reason why the Demon Alliance would think about her.
The concert will be held on October 3rd, but this time the show will last for three days, because it is a large-scale performance of Scarlett's song and dance troupe, and the concert is just her prerogative as the biggest singer among them.
After discussing this operation for a while, in order to achieve the purpose of the ambush, Watson felt that it was not a good idea to communicate directly with the people in the song and dance troupe, after all, the person in charge of this song and dance troupe was unknown, and no one could guarantee that there would be no peripheral members of the Demon Alliance or demon contractors in the song and dance troupe.
In the end, for the sake of safety, everyone unanimously decided to buy a few tickets for the concert and enter as spectators when the time comes, so as not to attract attention and avoid the eyes and ears of the possible Demon Alliance. (To be continued.) )
